An aged man was seen a short while ago selling himself near the Dongguan Baxian An (That's the Temple of the "Eight Immortals", 八仙庵) in Xi'an. He walked around the area with 2 selfmade cardboards attached to his body. The cardboard on his back reads “I am selling myself, for only 20,000 Yuan. My skills: Singing, dancing, looking after the house (housekeeping), cleaning the yard, washing and cooking. I am Cheap! And much better than a dog. Who wants to buy me?”

And on the front cardboard he wrote: “Something happened in my family. An aged man is looking for urgent help! What terrible fate could have occurred to this man that he sees no other way out of his misery? Perhaps we will never know it. Dozens of people were turning around when the man passed by but so far noone seems to be able to help yet and the aged man is still making his rounds. Older people in such economical emergencies can be seen more often now in Xi'an, than it was the case a couple of years ago. Hopefully, it is not the beginning of a new trend.
